    Almost all of the Brazillian people I've met (in wow or otherwise) speak English. Most of them can't speak Spanish ironically, but just about all of them speak English.

    What are you even trying to do here? You just tried to instigate conflict with two different people.

    I haven't found any issues with the br/es crowd. I speak more english than spanish and play on a spanish server. I lfd all day long. I get paired with people from similar realms and can still communicate. I do the same things I would do in an english speaking group. I just assume most people know what to do and it all works out.

    Maybe you are trying to explain everything to much and people are giving you the mickey because of your huge wall of english text. You don't really have to boss people around or even say anything other than hello! and ty for group!. Playing together involves more nonverbal communication like watching how the other players are playing and acting in concert.

    If you are trying to inform everybody in every group of how all mechanics work in english then you are probably a bit of a drag. The more I think about it, the more I am reminded of the phrase: If everybody else is a problem, it is probably just you.

    Did you really just say it was his fault for helping too much? This is why people don't help you at all these days.

    So what, the USA is a nation of immigrants, English doesn't have to be perfect to get along there. I know people who don't even know English and have gone from being immigrants with nothing in their pockets to owning their own businesses.

    And I know people in Chile who have done the same thing with only a very minimal knowledge of Spanish.

    Care to explain how too people offending myself and every other Brazilian are just innocent bystanders, and how I pointing that I reported one for prejudice and the other one that every country have their language butchers are "instigating" them?

    Can you? This thread derailed to offending a portion of the players based only on feelings of superiority, without any significant backup.

    Can we have it closed?

    Nope. Sure didn't. I am saying people don't really need anybody to explain everything to them. It's lfd and lfr not rocket science.

    Your statement implies that him saying everything in english is even helpful.
